What does the persecuted church have to teach us?
Most of us are blissfully ignorant of the true extent and nature of the persecution of Christians today. On top of that, we don’t know how to effectively help our suffering brothers and sisters. Now Faith That Endures stands as the most comprehensive and authoritative guide on the persecution of the church today to help you answer these important questions: • What does contemporary persecution look like? • What is a persecuted Christian? • Where is the persecuted church? • How can we best assist the persecuted church? • What does the persecuted church have to teach us? Through true stories from the author’s many years of work supporting the persecuted church, you will see how God is building His kingdom all around the world. And as you become more connected to the experiences of the persecuted, you will discover new spiritual truths that will transform your own faith and witness. |
